The problem with vaccines is it’s a false sense of security.

If you’re already obese, a chain smoker, gang member, looter, rioter, arsonist, Antifa, BLM, etc. then you’re already walking on thin ice when it comes to jail or an early grave.

Vaccines aren’t going to save that type of irresponsible and criminal behavior.

Messiah-Biden isn’t going to save you.

Uh, no. That's not a problem associated with a vaccines. Way to argue your point into complete irrelevancy. Come back once you're no longer drunk.

Time will tell and for those voicing opinions on it either way are just running their mouths off unless they are intimately and directly involved with the testing and development have to just do what we all do, assume that the studies and testing results that say it's good is out and of course people don't get the virus after the vaccine is issued.

The rest of the yammering is speculation.

Right now some of the vaccine makers use mRNA based vaccines while others don't. I don't know if there are truly any risks to using an mRNA based vaccine but not everyone is convinced. Personally I think mRNA based therapy will be what cures many diseases in the future, including things like cancer, diabetes, etc. This assumes the medical industrial complex can make more money off the cure than they do off treating the illness. I know some of you think it doesn't work like that, but watching things play out as they have, I'm convinced money is a big driver in medical care and potential cures (or suppression of cures) ..
I believe this mRNA was used for the cure for hepatitis C........

Yes, but only if taken. Hopefully Democrat leaders and spokespeople will stop with the fear mongering over the Trump vaccines soon, so people will feel comfortable in getting them.

Don't forget the rabid anti-vaxxers in the woo community. Maybe they will come to reality when it's their lives on the line, not just their children's.

My mother lived to be 93, and had never been vaccinated.

Billions of $$ have been spent to find the anti-aging vaccine.

Her second husband died ten years younger than she, and believe you me, he was a fully vaccinated Army Ranger. Actually, though, it is not known whether he was heavily vaccinated or not.

He continued his army diet from the Great War; spam, loads of sugar, chocolate, loads of salt, and of course tons of whiskey (on and off), coffee and cigarettes. He lived to 83, but went down fast from prostate cancer.

Bill Gates is working hard to have more effective anti-living formulas developed.

I hope that those that are going to chose to use the vaccines that they work for them, but since Im not going to be one that chooses to use them therefore it isnt about whether they work at all for me. Maybe one day we will develop a flu vaccines that works. It may work for some, may not work for others.

So let me get this straight ....

The vaccines are 95% effective against a virus that has a 99.7% survival rate.

But the vaccine can make you as sick as the virus that has the 99.7% survival rate.

Where do I sign up?

No one wants side effects, but they do go along w/ high efficacy usually. Even w/ the flu vaccine, you can get a sore arm, mild fever, malaise. Pneumococcal, very sore arm and strong fatigue for a day. Small price to pay when you look at the whole picture.
